Trying to figure out the perfect type of moving truck rental for your move can be difficult and it can be one of the most important decisions you make during your move. If you get a truck that’s too small, you’ll have to figure out another way to get everything that doesn’t fit in the truck to your destination. If you get a truck that’s too big, then you will have spent extra money on a bigger truck that you just didn’t need. That’s why it’s so crucial to find the perfect size moving truck for you.

That may lead to the question: how do I figure out what the best moving truck size is for me and my move? We have some tips and tricks to help you figure that out.

Believe it or not, one of the easiest ways to figure out how big of a truck you’ll need is by counting the amount of rooms you’ll be packing up and moving. A lot of moving truck companies will tell you how many rooms worth of items a truck can typically fit. So, you can easily count up the amount of rooms you’re packing up and then get enough truck space for that many rooms. It really is as simple as it sounds.

Another easy way to figure out how much truck space you’ll need is to calculate the amount of space you’ll need. There are a ton of websites out there that will help you easily figure out the appropriate amount of space you’ll need. To do this, you’ll want to figure out how much stuff you’re moving to use the calculator.

Whether you are moving around the corner or across the state, moving can be stressful. Luckily, AFM Storage is ready to help residents in the Greensboro, NC area with some of their moving needs. While we don't physically move your belongings for you, we can help provide you with some of the necessary moving supplies as well as moving truck rentals and storage spaces, should you need those during your move.

AFM Storage can help with your next move by offering:

Moving Supplies

Before you start packing up your home for your move, it's important to have all of the moving supplies you need on hand so you can pack up without having to run back and forth to the store. At AFM Storage, we are a one-stop shop for all of your moving supply needs. From moving boxes and tape to furniture covers and mattress bags, we've got what you are looking for.

Moving Boxes

When you are getting ready for a move, you may be saving up all the boxes you've received from online orders. While this is a great idea, you may quickly realize you'll need a lot more boxes. We have the boxes you need to safely move your belongings from location to location. Choose from a variety of sizes including large boxes for bulky items and small to medium boxes for other items.

Tape

It's important to keep your moving boxes securely closed. While you may be tempted to find the cheapest tape on the market, it's better to spend the money on quality tape, as this is what will be used to keep your items safe and secure. Purchasing cheap tape usually means thin tape that isn't as sticky. We offer heavy-duty packing tape and tape dispensers to help you get the job done.

Bubble Wrap

You want your belongings to arrive at your next destination in one piece. Having bubble wrap on hand will allow you to wrap up fragile items so they stay safe during the move. Bubble wrap works well for a variety of items including small to large items and oddly shaped items that could break during transport.

Labels

When you get to your final destination, the last thing you want to do is search through each box while looking for a specific item. Organization is key while you are moving and adding labels to your boxes makes it so much easier to determine what is inside each box.

Furniture Covers

Furniture can be costly to replace so you want to make sure you take great care when moving it to prevent damage. We offer furniture covers in a variety of sizes to help you protect your furniture. These slide right over your furniture to protect it during transport as well as offering extra padding and keeping it clean.

Mattress Bags

Keep your mattresses clean during your next move with a mattress bag from us. You don't want to get spills or stains on the surface you sleep on, so protect it while you can.

Moving Truck Rentals

Unless you have multiple trucks or vans for your move, you might be in need of a reliable moving truck rental. At AFM Storage, we offer a variety of rental options through U-Haul . These trucks are available in various sizes to accommodate your needs. They are equipped with many safety features to keep you and your belongings safe during transport and are perfect for long and short-distance moves. Best of all, they are affordable!

Storage Rentals

If your home is not ready yet or you need temporary storage options, we offer the space you need. We provide storage units and lockers in a variety of sizes from 8 cubic feet lockers to 10ftx30ft units. If you aren't sure what size you'll need for your short or long-term storage needs, contact our team and we can help you determine the appropriate size.
